The Kentucky Wildcats are the University of Kentucky's NCAA squads. The Wildcats got their well-deserved nickname after their football victory against Illinois in 1909 when Philip Cobusier, the old State University military department head, remarked that the football players fought through the game 'like wildcats'. The name stuck and was used formally by the University of Kentucky for its athletes. Today, the Big Blue Nation has an ever-expanding base that is quite apparent particularly during road games. The Wildcats even have fans overseas, particularly in Japan where the men's basketball team enjoys the adoration of many fans. Today, the Wildcats remain as college basketball's winningest team and NCAA jerseys bearing their colors are highly sought after.
The Kentucky Wildcats' home turf is Kensington, Kentucky. It became known as the 'Athens of the West' because of its reputation as a highly cultured state. It was, after all, one of the largest towns in the region that enjoyed great wealth. Lexington is one of the most urban cities in the US but has kept its natural charm thanks to its numerous horse farms and well-preserved historical sites and projects. Lexington is also famous for its Woodland Art Fair, Artists' Market and the annual Mayfest Arts Fair. Its Festival of the Bluegrass is a major event held each June and is also a strong tourist draw. It is also home to the blue and white Kentucky Wildcats jerseys, the city's uniform.
The Kentucky Wildcats enjoy a solid fanbase and as such sports jerseys bearing their signature blue and white logos remain extremely popular. Big Blue Nation 'citizens' are known to spare no expense when supporting their sports idols. In fact, fans clad in Wildcats jerseys often use blue body paint and blue wigs to show their allegiance.
